Patient's question:
My child has been born for a week. Yesterday, when Grandma was holding him in the sun, I noticed that he was a bit yellow. It is said that jaundice in newborns is normal, but I am still very worried. Please ask: Is newborn jaundice very serious? Will it cause cerebral palsy?Doctor's answer:
Hello: If a newborn has fever, cold, eczema, jaundice, or similar conditions during anesthesia for vaccination, it is generally recommended to postpone the anesthesia to prevent symptoms from worsening! Advice: Based on the description, the jaundice is gradually decreasing, so there is no need to worry too much! Currently, it is important to ensure the child consumes plenty of breast milk to achieve the principle of "more intake, more excretion," allowing bilirubin to be excreted through the stool! Newborns with jaundice can, while understanding professional treatment, use folk remedies as supplementary therapy in daily life. Appropriate dietary habits should be maintained in daily meals to avoid irritating foods.
